first song I learnt by ear. WEll without looking at anyone playing it or having teh sheet music at all. Granted the piano part in the beinging is easy I can do it. Needa train it better though even though I dont have the time right now

Alright. I just discorved I had this like a year ago and well I ai'nt that hot at it yet. or will there be no yet? can i train it a little better or not? cuz I mean i have it. If i just sat down and tried i'd have to be getting better at it or atleast go oh i am good i just needa sit down and try it?

Wow that was cool. I went outside and opened the garage door. And I hummed the pitch came in and the first note i played was b. and of course it was it hahaha..well its c on my piano since i still haven't tuned it yet..for some reason someone tuned it a half step higher then it should be. i have no clue why.

So you actually thought it was a b when it was actually a c []

Mozart was supposed to have had very perfect pitch - he would know even if an instrument was a teeny weeny bit out of tune. He is said to have been able to hear a long piece of music once, then play it back from memory.

On my website there is a page which has a signal-generator and a frequency-counter/instrument tuner you can download....sorry, you cannot view external links. To see them, please

In the past I've also found some fun musical-ability tests at this site (nothing to do with me):...sorry, you cannot view external links. To see them, please

No its actually a b, but its a c on my piano since its HIGHER then it should be.

and no. i was taught how to read sheet music with my saxophone in band before i even got a piano..but i still can't just read and play it. even though i did teach my self guitar and piano completely

thats not perfect pitch.

perfect pitch would be if you heard the note, and instantly recognised it as b.

it sounds as though you remembered the note, then replicated it on the piano.

all humans could do this, with the exception of a few completely tone deaf indiviuals.

the only difference between you and a complete novice in this is that you would be more likely to play the right note first try, and this is just experience.

Yup yup.. I don't have perfect pitch.. I don't think I even have relative pitch.

But I can still do what you wrote up there [] After a few attempts
